I think you would have trouble keeping the reducer in place when preloading/compressing the split ring.

And I don't see why you would need to split the reducer?

How do you mean struggle to keep it in place? I had in mind a shim with a lip on so it can’t drop down inside the headtube but sits nicely on the edge of the bearing’s split ring.

I think if I’m not mistaken that the split ring that comes with the headset reduces the ID of the headset from 32.8 to 31.8mm and 1mm isn’t big enough of a gap for a wire. So aligning the slots on the split ring and the reducer shim gives double space

Edit: 0.5mm actually, either side

Smart, should work.
